Traction Control System problem #1

2007 Jeep Wrangler unlimited 4dr 4x4. At speeds over 50 mph, the front tires begin to shake and wobble violently. The shaking only stopped after I came to a complete stop. This happened after I hit a bumpy road. My Jeep has been a street vehicle and really not going on the highway many times. I only have under 9,000 miles. Now that I live in California, and I have to drive in highways, I feel very uncomfortable driving speeds over 50 miles per hour.

Traction Control System problem #2

2007 Jeep Wrangler 4x4 safari with esp (electronic stability program). Esp intermittently turns on by itself and can't be turned off. It will eventually turn itself off. Dealer tells me it's caused by a defective clock spring in the steering column, which also controls the steering wheel air bag, cruise control and the horn! I feel this is a safety concern, if any of these devices quit working, because of a defective clock spring!!!!.

Traction Control System problem #3

While turning into my driveway my 2007 Jeep Wrangler x (with 55000 miles) "chimed" and the air-bag , traction control, and anti-lock brake warning lights lit up. Upon investigsting the issue I found that this leaves the saftey systems inactive! a bad "clock spring" in the steering wheel is he cause of all the system failures. My vehicle is no longer covered under warranty, but I feel that this should still be covered by Jeep/Chrysler. This is a major safty concern or me and my family.
